DeSean Jackson had two catches for 16 yards and one carry for 10 yards in the Eagles' Week 10 loss to the Bears.
He also had multiple drops and a fumble. He is on pace to have just 58 grabs, 1,006 yards, and four TDs, and the problem is his inability to go over the middle and his poor route-running. Teams are taking away the deep ball and he isn't making them pay. We expect big games from him, but he's producing like a WR3 regardless of format and an improvement is not a foregone conclusion. Owners will want to hang on for a matchup with Arizona, however.
D-Jax is fantasy poison. If you dare sit him, THAT's the week he busts over 30. But this year NOT ONCE over 20 points and five times less than 5 points. But as far as his play, yes, defenses are taking away the deep ball, but being from the area and watching every game, it sure looks like he's been taking plays off. In his defense, he has contract issues that are still unsettled. So how do you motivate him into giving 110%?....well....still playing him vs. Cards.
